Drones in Aerospace and Defense Thematic Overview
Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) commonly known as drones, have been a much-used part of advanced militaries’ arsenals for many decades. The US is the pioneer in the development and utilization of unmanned capabilities such as the RQ-2 Pioneer used during Operation Desert Storm or the MQ-9 Reaper used in current conflicts in Syria. In the last few years, other producers have also developed viable, affordable platforms, subsequently increasing the horizontal proliferation of unmanned capabilities. In addition, recent geo-political conflicts have fueled investment in such technologies and have reinvigorated the development of novel military UAVs and research into the dual-use potential of drone technology.
The Drones in Aerospace and Defense thematic intelligence report gives you an in-depth insight into the drone market and the impact it will have on the aerospace and defense sector.
